A narrative cinematic platformer for Nintendo Switch

Ministry of Broadcast is a single-player cinematic platformer on Nintendo Switch that blends Orwellian dystopia with reality-TV satire. You guide a ginger-haired contestant through deadly Arenas in a bid to cross The Wall and reunite with his family. The story unfolds through environmental details, animation sequences, and NPC dialogue rather than exposition. Dark humour and absurdity punctuate every hazardous stage.

Environmental storytelling

All hints and clues are woven directly into the decaying art direction, demanding a keen eye to survive each Arena. Gameplay revives the spirit of 1989 cinematic platformers such as Prince of Persia, requiring precise run-and-jump reflexes and careful navigation of precarious heights. Puzzles often involve direct interaction with the surroundings and occasional ruthless choices. No separate HUD or menus interrupt the seamless presentation.

Physical cartridge with no extra hardware required

The product ships as a standard Nintendo Switch game card in new condition. No additional peripherals, downloads, or subscriptions are needed to play the full campaign. The single-player experience is self-contained on the cartridge, offering the complete narrative without mandatory updates. Simply insert the card and begin the contestant's journey toward freedom.
